1/2 cup unsweetened coconut

1 tablespoon natural yogurt
1 teaspoon garam masala

Coarsely chop or cut the vegetables. In a wok or stir-fry pan, heat the ghee and add the vegetables. Cover and cook until vegetables are just tender, several minutes.

Simmer 1-2 minutes and serve, garnished with cilantro.
